The average total body water percentage range for healthy men is between 50 – 65%.
The equivalent value for women is approximately 45 – 60% due to the higher body fat
content. About two third of the total body water is stored in the cells and is therefore
called intra cellular. The other third of the total body water is extra cellular body water.
For men is the normal range of body mass index between 20 and 25, for women 19 to
24. When people in the second half of life a body mass index to 26 is considered as still
normal.

their hydration level. Retaining fluid may cause the weight to fluctuate day-to-day. This will
also affect the body fat percentage readings. If the hydration level is high, the body fat
percentage is slightly less – a less hydration level means the body fat percentage is slightly
higher. There is no healthy risk for pregnancy. The body analyzer is absolute safe for the
mother and her unborn baby. However, due to the changes in water content in the
mother’s body, the readings should not be interpreted as completely accurate.
